( Bstrike, IFF, Vampric Repair, and Epulse3 have been intentionally ommited.)

I use epulse everyonce in awhile to agro small groups of fighters.

In space replen, and repair, yes sometimes I just don't feel like landingto load Missiles or CM's, so I get the cool Reb., freighter to come hook me up

I always remember jumpstart after the guy I was helping ona tier 3/4 mission dies. Does that count?
They usually bring CtSS and other droid commands along for the next try.

I use eshields occasionally when I get back from Deep Space with everything disabled to reset the whole mess.

It seems to me epulse 1 and 2 do exactly the same thing.

I use epulse 2 all the time every time I jump into deepspace just to nail any load campers.
Caught 2 JSF's camping once...was kinda funny to see their tells afterwards...

I use ethrust to reset my overloads. Just to save on the droid memory I guess..

Until I got a larger reactor I would have to use /pumpreactor to get my DI restarted in space, have never used eweapons, and only try nebulablast once - since it reset my programs it was not of much worth to me.

I used Emergency Shields once last night in Deep Space, probably the first time since I was first doing my initial Ace grind. I won't be using it again, it resets all your droid overloads, which is a waste of time.

Sometimes I use eshields. Its annoying cos of the droid program issue but sometimes i get myself in a right panic and hit eshields rather than think of a proper solution.

VRepairOther has its uses, as it's not too impossible for a group member to lose a vital components but survive the encounter.

Pump Reactor is really only useful if your DI is blown away and you have nothing to lose - considering that if you scram the reator you are DEAD.

Emergency Weapons is very powerful when trying to take out a target that can't hit you (such as when you are underneath a gunboat or the corvette after Gun 5 is down). If you expect to take any fire, however, it might as well be an EJECT button.

Pirate Trap is the sort of thing I'd only use if I wanted to occupy the enemy AND get some more xp - because any time you'd actually need the help, they're too much of a liability since they always seem to target the caller first.

E-Pulse can be powerful but not at the cost of draining your shields and capacitor - it's like a one-shot Emergency Weapons, see above.

Jump Start? Haven't tried it yet but I wonder... does this work on escort targets? Sometimes it would be nice to use it on a freighter or whatever you're escorting to heal it between waves.

I big furpile missions I use jstart's fairly often, especially when it is a choice between missing a few shots or starting the whole thing over.
